The Light Side: Oh Yeah!

No, this is not a musing on Ferris Bueller's Day Off, although that would be fun. This is the flipside of yesterday's post.

Here's something positive that occurred as a result of a month of ELA test prep in my fourth grade classroom.

On Tuesday, as we sat in our meeting space recapping parts of speech, how to respond to different types of questions, and the importance of a good night's sleep, we only had a few minutes left of our writing block.

"Mrs. Narita," a student raised her hand.

"Yes," I answered.

"Is this all we're doing for writing today?"

I nodded. "Yep, it's time for recess."

She slapped her thigh. "Ugh! No writing. I hate that. I used to hate writing, but now I love it. I can't stand it when we don't get to write."

Oh yeah!
